Timberlake 3, Clark Fork 0

SPIRIT LAKE — The Wampus Cats weren't able to get revenge on the Tigers, losing 3-0 (17-25, 17-25, 21-25) at Timberlake High School on Tuesday.

Clark Fork went into the game missing two starters due to illness, so bench players had to step up right out of the gate.

"We decided it was a night to try new things and really support one another," head coach Lyndsie Kiebert-Carey said. "I'm proud of the girls' energy and positivity while facing adversity."

Eloise Shelton and Lilly Reuter had a heavy workload Tuesday. Shelton recorded a team-high nine kills, a team-high 13 digs, and three aces. Reuter chipped in 14 assists and three aces of her own. Piper Scarlett also had three aces on the night.

On defense, freshman Nora-Jean Hoy stepped up in the middle posting two aces and a stuff block that energized her teammates.

Clark Fork (4-5, 1-0) after facing three 3A opponents in a row, will face Kootenai (0-4) on the road today.
